The Loyola Maroon Vol. XLII Loyola Univer«ity, New Orleans, La., Friday, January 14, 1966 No. 10 $31 Million Expansion Announced A 10-year, $31.8 million development program involving the construction of seven major buildings and the addition of $8 million in endowment and operating funds to the university's resources was announced on Christmas Day by the Loyola administration. The Rev. Louis H. Pilie, S.J., chairman of Loyola's Board of Regents, said the program, called the Loyola University Campaign for Excellence, was launched "to enable the university to meet its obligations in our developing area by achieving new levels of excellence in its instructional, research and service programs."The expansion plan consists of three phases. The first phase, beginning this year and terminating in 1968, will fulfill the priority needs of the university and will cost $18.3 million. Of that total, $15.3 million is designated for construction and renovation while $3 million will go for endowment and operating funds. Four major buildings are sch e d uled for construction during the first phase. They include: ■^————-^^^^^^— A women's residence hall, presently under construction and scheduled for completion in September, 1966, costing $2.5 million. A new, $7 million school of dentistry, located off campus on Tulane ave. opposite Charity hospital. A science complex housing the university's chemistry, physics and mathematics departments and its computer center, costing $3.6 million. A new, $1.2 million building for the School of Law. Other plans during the first phase include renovation of Bobet hall for biological sciences and medical technology departments, additional athletic and recreational facilities featuring an enclosed Olympicsized swimming pool, and revamping of the campus' drainage and electrical systems. The second phase, from 1969-71, will encompass construction of a fine arts center and auditorium, a general classroom building, a memorial mall for the campus and the renovation of certain existing buildings. In addition, funds for endowment and academic improvement will be alloted. Total second phate cost will be $7.9 million. Projected funds for the third phase, from 1972-75, total $5.6 million. Construction during this period includes a new residence hall for men and major additions to the university library and residence hall. The Rev. Homer R. Jolley, S. J., formerly vice-president in charge of development, is the new president of the university. The Rev. John F. Keller, S.J., formerly treasurer, is new executive vice-president. More correctly, "it is designated to enable the university to replace outmoded buildings, several of them World War II surplus structures; to accomplish renovations long overdue and to provide for the orderly growth of certain departments in line with community needs and developments in education," said Father Smith. Basic to the plan, he mid, it "our desire to make the university more useful to the community and region, and more relevant to the needs of mankind." Citing the moving of the dental school to Tulane ave. As an example, he added, "In this great health facilities center, the dental school will be able to expand its services to its students and to the people of New Orleans." As to the source of these expansion funds, Father Pilie indicated that first-phase construction funds of about $6.8 million are available through federal grants and self-liquidating loans with such grants requiring matching funds. The remaining $11.5 million is be- Ing sought through foundations, corporations and individuals, and a campaign for such funds has begun with "several large gifts" already received, he added. Father Smith indicated that Loyola has received a matching grant of $3 million under the Health Professions Educational Assistance Act toward •construction of the dental school. A bank loan of $970, 000 was made to purchase the land, and the university must raise slightly less than $3 million to match the federal loan, he stated. Other funds immediately available, according to Father Smith, include a $2.4 million Belf-liquidating loan for the women's residence hall under construction, a $1 million grant to provide approximately one-third of the science complex's cost and a $1.6 million loan for the science complex. The science complex loan is not self-liquidating, and the campaign includes funds to service this debt. Science Complex The above illustration is an artist's conception of the new science complex to be constructed as part of the mass building project initiated this year. It will cover an entire block and contain all the science facilities for biology, physics, chemistry, etc. Ths is only one building in a series to be constructed before 1968. Schlesinger To Speak On U. S. Presidency Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr., Pulitzer Prize winning historian, will speak at Loyola Feb. 17 in the field- Schlesinger, who recently appeared on the cover of Time magazine, is slated to speak on "The Future of the Presidency." He will discuss the government, the thermonuclear age, big government concerning personal liberties, the role of the presidency with a consideration of a multiple presidency or an executive vice-president, succession, and the Constitution in the 20th century. The Pulitzer Prize was awarded to Schlesinger in 1946 for his "Age of Jackson." At 28, he then became the youngest historian ever to win the coveted prize. FROM 1961 to 1964, Schlesinger served in the White House as Special Assistant to the late President John F. Kennedy and afterwards to President Lyndon B. Johnson. Schlesinger left the White House in March of 19(54 to work on his recently published "A Thousand Days," which already is at the top of the best seller list. The book is the much discussed study of the Kennedy administration. Schlesinger graduated summa cum laude from Harvard in 1938 and the following year his honors essay was published under the title of "Orestes A. Brownson: A Pilgrim's Progress." Since then he has written seven books, including the most recent one on President During World War II Schlesinger served in the Office of War Information in Washington and in the Office of Strategic Services in London, Paris, and Germany. Schlesinger completed work on his prize-winning "Age of Jackson" during the war. He had begun work on it as a Henry Fellow at Cambridge university, England, and later as a member of the Society of Fellows at Harvard. THE NEW YORK Times says that Schlesinger "ranks among the foremost in the new generation of vigorous social thinkers." Time magazine wrote "He sees history as Carlyle did—a panorama of 'men in buff coats and breeches, with color in their cheeks, with passions in their stomachs, and SCHLESINGER Student Game Room Opens By SKIP PEREZ Wolf's Den UCl 1111 Ci CtrllLcl II C1S llllctl 1\ UcLOwl C 11 Ivtt 11 \Dy • The Wolf's Den was opened for general use on Tuesday, January 11. at 10 a.m., and the much needed facilities were immediately put to use.

Partridge, S.J., dean of students and the man whose efforts spearheaded the ultimate completion of the game room, will preside as the ribbon cutter at the formal opening of the Wolf's Den. "I'm very happy that after three years of waiting, the students have something that was designedly built for their recreation," Fr. Partridge said, "and if this recreation room proves to be successful with the students, then the revenue from it can be used to install the bowling alleys Mike Wittman, A&S senior, chairman of the recreation committee of the Student Union, suggested that the students help in making the Wolf's Den a success, mainly by cooperating with the attendants, who are donating, their time on a strictly volunteer basis. In the near future tournaments will be planned and we are also anticipating a Girls' Night and a Faculty N'ight in which instructions, free of charge, will be given to the participants in all aspects of the games, Wittman added. Mr. Homy Asher, director of the Student Union, asserted that this is not a stag room, it is for everybody, coeds as well as men, and we want the coeds to use it also. Any suggestions the students may have in regard to the improvement of the Wolf's Den will be gladly taken by the attendant LU Gets DuPont Teaching Grant- Loyola university has received a $5,000 rotating grant for advanced teaching from the DuPont company of Wilmington, Del., the Very Rev.
